Recurly Callback API Server in Hapi.js

0 README

The Recurly Webhook api calls a remote server passing data about user events. This server captures the calls and account_code to enable updating remote data. Typically you would use the Recurly REST API to validate any webhook call from the API itself.

SETUP
$ npm install
$ node server.js
$ source text.sh   # posts data.xml to local server simulating webhook callbacks
